Abstract excerpt
A thymic stromal cell line with a medullary phenotype (Z210R.1) supported the differentiation of surface IgM+ B cells when cocultured with fetal liver cells in vitro. Conditioned medium (CM) from this cell line supported the long-term growth of a B cell line (NAG8/7) isolated from cocultures and...
